I thank the witnesses for their presentations. I too wish to pay tribute to the families affected by the Dublin and Monaghan bombings and pay my deepest respects to them.

The Good Friday Agreement is probably one of the best agreements that has ever existed. It is an amazing document and it would be awful to think it would be compromised in any way. However, it is a realistic prospect that Brexit could in some way compromise it. Professor Phinnemore mentioned that it is not simply trade that will be impacted and he also mentioned human rights. He might expand on how he sees human rights being impacted. He also mentioned EU funding for services. We all know the impact of the conflict, which affected many people. I have often spoken of the intergenerational trauma and I know some funding is going into those services. How does he see those services being impacted? I believe my colleagues have touched on all the other issues.
